AI Summary (NQ-processed)
US President Trump's planned May visit to China may be jeopardized by the unresolved Strait of Hormuz crisis. The US has imposed a naval blockade on Iranian ports, creating a 'dual blockade' situation in the Strait. This could negatively impact China's supply chains, energy security, and trade with Gulf nations. Analysts suggest that if the crisis persists, Trump's visit is less likely, forcing China to abandon its strategic ambiguity.
